PCloud no longer works on Macs with Ventura or Sonoma - any fix?

PCloud was a folder on my Mac for years. Simply loaded and opened automatically. Update to Ventura - it cranses - have to log in each time - and set permissions. Sonoma killed it entirely - simply get an outdated dialog in an error message telling me to go into settings - to a place now changed in name - to set permissions - the permissions are already granted. After uninstalls and reinstalls, including work in recovery mode (and 75 minutes with Apple Advisors) it still does not work. Any thoughts? The Apple people - after all that time - are saying the App provided by Pcloud is faulty with the newer versions of the Mac OS. Any other ideas?

iMac (2017 – 2020)

pCloud is extremely buggy on my mac, running Sonoma on M2. It keeps on crashing, I restart it, navigate to pCloud drive and opens some folder and it crashes. Very annoying.

Did everything they suggested - still no joy - it is not good for people who use Macs

Hello,

I had the same problem and fixed it!

Just re-launch on safety mode and enable the Reduced Security option.

Check out this page with an explanation on how to install on silicon apples an audio driver. Same works for pCloud. Follow these steps and you'll be fine:

Good Luck! :)

It may not be good for people who use pCloud.
